Jaime Jarmin, an MA student in the counseling and student personnel psychology (CSPP) program in the Department of Educational Psychology, developed a unit plan for a class on “Teaching about Genocide.” It was a unit plan she originally created for an English language arts (ELA) class. However as she has since decided to become a school counselor, she decided to merge school counseling curriculum into it.

“It’s a cross-curricular unit plan that weaves together school counseling empathy lessons and ELA lessons for a novel about the Holocaust,” Jarmin explains.
